"The Legionnaires' Disease Prevention Act"; establishes grant program for restoration or removal of buildings with compromised water supply systems; appropriates $5 million.

This bill establishes a $5 million grant program to help building owners restore or remove structures with compromised water systems that pose Legionnaires' disease risks. It directly affects owners of buildings with aging water infrastructure, particularly those with over 100 service connections. Key provisions require public water systems to develop maintenance plans based on new Department of Environmental Protection guidelines for preventing Legionella bacteria growth, including flushing schedules and disinfectant monitoring. The bill also mandates annual compliance certifications and creates public education campaigns about Legionella risks in water systems.
